Applications:
- Total applications were up 6.2%, from 15,633 to 16,632. In a historical
context, the increase is incredible: in 2006, we had a mere 11,374
applicants.
- Our admit rate was 9.7%. That's down from 10.7% percent last year due to
increased applications with an inelastic class size, and predictions of
increased yield (more people who get in coming to MIT). In 2006, our admit
rate was 13.3%.
Demographics:
- Our incoming class is 53% male and 47% female. The male/female applicant
ratio is slightly higher in favor of men. However, women who apply to MIT
tend to be self-selecting - they tend to really, really want to come here,
which makes them stronger applicants overall.
- The class of 2014 is 36% Caucasian, 30% Asian, 14% Hispanic, 9% African-
American, a few percentage points for assorted "other". All in all, it's
about 75% "over-represented" and 25% "under-represented."
- 7% are international. The international admit rate this year was 3%. As
always, our international acceptances are out of this world good. They have
to be.
- 14% are first generation to college.
- 67% attended public schools, 18% attended private schools, and the rest
attended an assortment of religious/homeschool/etc.
Other:
- 25% of our applicants were valedictorians of their class. 51% of the class
of 2014 are valedictorians. HOWEVER, of the 2196 valedictorians who applied
, only 427 were admitted. So being a valedictorian was not your ticket,
though it is a good thing! In any case, 94% of our admits were in the top 5%
of their class. Our median SATs were in the mid 700s for all applicants.
- 31% of the class were identified as being "academic stars". Examples of
academic stars include being a Siemens Finalist, qualifying for the USAMO,
and so forth. Like with everything else, being "starry" in this way is a
good thing, but it doesn't secure you a spot in the class. Of the nearly 900
academic stars who applied, less than 500 got in.
- 19% of the class were identified as being art, music, or athletic stars.
These are people who may have played major concerts as soloists, or who have
been recruited to be varsity athletes. One of our art stars has designed
several US stamps and a major art installation at the UN, and has been
supporting his family since the age of 8. Same as with the academic stars,
this helps, but isn't a meal ticket: of the 900+ AMA stars who applied,
around 300 got in.
These are the best data I can give you. Like all data-posts, they're going
to be necessarily reductive.
They don't capture the personal qualities, leadership abilities, teacher
evaluation support, interview, etc, all of which are, on balance, much more
important than any criterion mentioned above.
Don't try to use these numbers to "chance" yourself. If you've read anything
I've written over the past 12 hours, just remember that the process is
unbelievably, astonishingly complex, takes many people countless hours to
perform, and cannot be replicated by simply looking at someone's class rank
and SAT scores.
We have a real commitment to transparency, honesty, and earnestness here at
MIT, and so I wanted to share these numbers with you to give you a sense of
how we do things and what an incredible class we have selected. | m********8

发帖数: 175 | 3 您真会转移话题，大家讨论藤校歧视，您转到MIT了。
MIT不是种族歧视的重灾区，如果您如果列Caltech，里面Asian能上40%呢。这些要招人
干活的专业，学生太水了会拖后腿的。但是不是所有的亚裔都喜欢理工科。
亚裔被歧视的重灾区在Ivy League和Stanford，里面亚裔基本被无形的配额cap住若干
年了。尽管亚裔人口都是增长最快的族裔，但是他们在这些名校的配额基本不变。

Stanford 1999年还招24% Asian呢，如今只有不到20%了，估计接下来几年就像人口比
例靠近了。

发帖数: 175 | 8 本来就不应该按照族裔在人口比例给配额，亚裔优秀，就像以前犹太人优秀一样，就应
该多录取。UC系列和Caltech不允许种族歧视，亚裔能到40%以上。Ivy和Stanford只给
20%配额，剩下被据的都是各方面条件优秀，但是因为肤色太黄，被据了。这种歧视并
不影响那些最优秀的亚裔，但是吃亏的是Wang同学这种比较优秀的亚裔。

歧视。
